WEAR IT RED - World AIDS Day Charity Event

Join us for a night of solidarity, sparkle, and soul as we unite to honour World AIDS Day at the legendary Palms On Oxford in Darlinghurst. This isn’t just another evening out — it’s a movement wrapped in sequins, soundtracked by house beats, and powered by compassion.

On Friday, November 27, 2026, the doors open at 8pm (that’s 9am UTC for our global family) and the energy will rise until 5am local time (6pm UTC). We’re turning the venue into a sea of red — wear your boldest crimson, your fiercest scarlet, or your most glittery ruby ensemble. It’s all about visibility, remembrance, and raising funds for ACON, one of Australia’s leading HIV and LGBTQIA+ health organisations.

Expect a dazzling lineup of live performers who bring both heart and theatrics to the stage: Conchita Grande, April-Mae June, Mynx Moscato, Faux Fur, Igor Black, Kevin Du-Val, and Kara Zmatiq. Their acts range from soulful vocals to camp cabaret, from spoken word to show-stopping lip-sync extravaganzas. Then, the night will heat up with beats by DJs Justin Scott, Kuya Hennessy, and Akito — spinning everything from disco classics to underground house and techno bangers.

This event isn’t just about dancing — it’s about community. It’s about showing up for one another, remembering those we’ve lost, and investing in a future where stigma is replaced with education and care. 100% of ticket sales go directly to ACON, so every dollar you spend helps fund life-changing advocacy, testing, and support programs.

Whether you’re here for the performers, the music, or the cause, you’ll find yourself surrounded by friends — old and new — who believe in the power of gathering with purpose. No dress code beyond red? Consider it a suggestion, not a rule. Feel free to go full glam, or keep it casual — as long as it’s red, you’re welcome.

Got questions? Reach out to the team at info@palmsonoxford.com.au or call +61 2 8380 0077. And yes — refunds are available up to 7 days before the event, if life throws you a curveball.

Let’s make this night unforgettable — for the right reasons.
